Bryan and Lilly were invited to go to the Colts pre-season opener on Friday night with Nathan and Avery. I know exactly what you're thinking...because Tania (Avery's mother) and I were thinking the same thing; that its ridiculous to take two toddlers to a football game. But, we were also thinking that maybe, just maybe, the girls would act how you would expect toddlers to act and that both dads would come home with a refreshed respect and appreciation for our day to day strife. Not to mention, the thought of an evening alone in my home was almost too much to bear. Its what left me smiling in the driveway and waving as they pulled away.
All of that aside, all four Colts fans (big and small) had a great time at the game. The girls made it till almost half time, the dads were satisfied with a successful outing, and Tania and I are excited about the possibility of more Daddy daughter outings that include 'Mom's night in'.

I love this picture. Lilly and Avery both look like such big girls sitting in their seats and they even appear to be watching the game.
I'm so glad Lilly enjoyed her first football game. Maybe she can come to Germany and see her cousin Matthew play!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a couple of cheerleaders in the making. Or better yet a couple of coaches. What a great thing for daddy's to share with their girls.
